Phospholipase C-beta4 is essential for the progression of the normal sleep sequence and ultradian body temperature rhythms in mice. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: THE SLEEP SEQUENCE: i) non-REM sleep, ii) REM sleep, and iii) wakefulness, is stable and widely preserved in mammals, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown.

The connections of the inferior colliculus and the organization of the brainstem auditory system in the greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum) [PDF]
The connections of the inferior colliculus, the mammalian midbrain auditory center, were determined in the greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum), using the horseradish peroxidase method.

Right lateral geniculate nucleus infarct presenting as a left monocular temporal hemianopia
A lesion to the right lateral geniculate nucleus should cause a complete left monocular hemianopia. We present a case of a patient with left eye monocular temporal hemianopia with two MRIs demonstrating an ischemic defect at the right lateral geniculate ...

Thalamic, cortical, and amygdala involvement in the processing of a natural sound cue of danger.
Animals use auditory cues generated by defensive responses of others to detect impending danger. Here we identify a neural circuit in rats involved in the detection of one such auditory cue, the cessation of movement-evoked sound resulting from freezing.

Noninvasive spatiotemporal imaging of neural transmission in the subcortical visual pathway
Spatiotemporal signal transmission in the human subcortical visual pathway has not been directly demonstrated to date. To delineate this signal transmission noninvasively, we investigated the early latency components between 45 ms (P45m) and 75 ms (N75m)
